Parking for Cricket Fans

Wed 7, Sat 10 and Thurs 15 June 2017

Cricket is taking place at Edgbaston Cricket Ground, close to Martineau Gardens in June (see dates listed above). You can park your car in the Martineau Gardens car park (subject to availability) for a £15 fee, we have space for 24 cars.

Thank you for choosing to park here.

Your fee is helping to support a great cause and local charity.

Martineau Gardens is a registered charity and a therapeutic community garden. We run education and therapeutic horticulture projects in the Gardens. The Gardens are here for the people of Birmingham to enjoy peace and tranquillity.

Your car is parked at your own risk. The gates will be locked or staffed, and staff will be on site throughout the match. If you wish to collect your car, before the end of the match, please phone 0121 440 7430 when you are outside the Gardens and we’ll unlock the gates.

At the end of play, the gates will be open for half an hour. Our staff will need to go home, so if you arrive later than this, you risk your car being locked in until 9.30am tomorrow morning, or an additional £15 charge.

Enjoy the cricket!
